COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
So simple in its creation, so magnificent in its maturity, this wonderful ale begins with Nature's most humble offerings, water, malted grains and hops. Our soulful yeast breathes life and depth into each brew. The steady hand of time orchestrates this alchemy into the splendid ale before you. Cheers!

Incredible monster of a brew. "Liquid Luxury" is an apt description. This is a full bodied, complex, concert of flavors. The beer is 12%, but you would never know based on the flavor. The warmth though, that gives away the high ABV. Flavors are rich caramel malts, nutmeg, even some cinnamon, some banana and a little hops just to tickle you. This is just a very well balanced, extremely potent Belgian Quad. Possibly the best Quad I have ever had.

(bottle) Disappointed from prior ratings. The 12% ABV is well hidden. Mild, malted flavor. Red complexion, but lacking in appearance and aroma.

bottle - Pours hazy orange with a small, lingering head. It has a fruity, yeasty aroma that’s really nice. The taste is very sweet up front with some light fruit notes and spicy yeast, but there’s also substantial hops that balances it out and leads into a dry finish. Very tasty.

Poured a golden color with medium head that dissipated. Aroma of citrus (orange), banana. Medium sweetness. Med bodied. Average carbonation. Long finish. This is an enjoyable sipping beer. The alcohol really balances out the sweetness. Good stuff.
